Good morning.
Over the weekend, news of the remarkable accomplishment of the SpaceX Dragon astronauts making the first water landing since 1975 was juxtaposed with the potential acquisition of the social app TikTok by Microsoft.  As stimulus talk and M&A activity begin to heat up, the indication is the potential for overheating on the combination of extremes.  The hope is that any potential selling can be met with a safe water landing for buyers before the next big step for the market.

Now here’s the rest of the news:

New Millionaires Will Be Minted… Likely Even Billionaires… 
Eric Wade made a compelling case for  bitcoin’s place in the global economy, and he also said that “investors who realize this are going to become fabulously wealthy in the process.”  We will soon see another bull run in bitcoin and cryptos of a magnitude that will put even the dot-com bubble to shame.  In fact, thanks to a single metric – scarcity – Eric believes that within eight years, bitcoin could be worth 100 time as much as it is today.  And the major catalyst ushering in this new age was the bitcoin “halving” event earlier this year…  Halving refers to the payouts or rewards that bitcoin “miners” receive for securing the network.

Our family outing to Reader Rock Garden, Calgary, AB.  [Shameful as it is, I’ve lived in Calgary for over 35 years; and not once walked through these magnificent gardens.]

This historic three-acre garden was created in 1913 by Calgary’s third Parks superintendent, William Roland Reader¹, and has been recognized around the world.  Through much trial and error William located various species of vegetation that, not only survived, but would thrive the dry summers and cold winters, in Alberta.

What a wonderful day in the neighbourhood.  Norm and my mom picked Caryl and me up-in-front of our home for a semi-guided tour of the outdoor botanical gardens.  Not to bore you with the particulars, but when Calgary was established just over 150 years ago … this was bare-ass prairie.  There was little or no diversity of leafy trees, dense bushes, or flowering plants to speak of.  Here are just a few pictures taken in this outdoor garden Sunday.

There you have it, a wonderful relaxing morning!

¹ Reader was originally a school teacher, who took it upon himself to change all that… 😉

Now… let’s come back to your role getting people to someone else’s website.  How do you do this?  First, you acquire an affiliate link from your new affiliate partner, one that’s unique to you.  Then you place ads on other online venues:

(with money you don’t have)  Facebook, search engines, forums, chat boards, other websites, etc.  You may not know this, but a huge percentage of the ads you click on online aren’t actually placed by the business owners selling the products.  They’re placed by affiliates, people who place ads and get clicks [traffic] in order to earn commissions.  MSI’s.  Multiple sources of income!

So, just how much traffic do you need to send to a website in order to make your first commission?

That depends mostly on two things: the people who make up your traffic, and how good the website is at making an irresistible offer that gets people to buy.

Here I’ll teach you the basics and how to get started.  Later on, I’ll invite you to join my affiliate program [and Network Marketing company.  We call these ‘turnkey’ programs, because all you have to do is put in a key [your affiliate link] and turn it [ drive traffic] to start making money.  Lust about everything else is done for you.

The first thing you should do when you start any new business, is focus on bringing in cash.
